I am working on some stuff which is based on the premise that people dont usually throw a single punches (although it certainly sometimes happens). Nor do they usually throw a continuous frenzy of punches nonstop without punctuation (although this too certainly sometimes happens). Rather people usually tend to throw punches in bursts of two or three punches... These bursts can come very close together, which subjectively can almost seem continuous but objectively there are usually brief punctuations when a beat or two are skipped (as the opponent evaluates relative position etc). . Real world experience and indirect information via anecdote and video footage of assaults and real fights, leads me to the supposition that the most commonly seen variants of the short burst are the two punch combination in the form of a left jab and right cross, and the three punch combination in the form of the big-right, big-left, big-right. . The big-right, big-left, big-right combo tends to have more power and commitment than the jab-cross, but also travels a bit slower (due to the need to mobilize body-mass behind the punches which is not characteristic of a jab). . I am curious what folks here think of this premise (which is merely stated as a matter or relative probability, not anything approaching a certainty)?
